Antimicrobial resistance affects the delivery of safe and effective healthcare. Antimicrobial resistance has attracted strong political focus, with the 2024 United Nations General Assembly high level meeting providing a clear commitment to reducing m...
Municipal wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) serve as global repositories for diverse and dynamic microbial communities, reflecting the complex interplay of human activities, environmental conditions, and public health challenges. Despite their impo...
INTRODUCTION: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a critical global public health concern, particularly acute in rural China. Counties, which cover extensive rural regions, face major challenges in AMR governance and thus require priority attention. Ye...
Rural domestic sewage has emerged as an important reservoir of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) under rapid urbanization, while the national-scale geographical patterns and risks of ARGs remaining unclear. We investigated ARG pollution in rural dom...
The coexistence of microplastics (MPs) and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in various environments presents significant ecological risks. However, the influence of MPs properties and environmental conditions shaping ARG dynamics remain unclear. Th...
Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) serve as reservoirs for multiple antimicrobial agents (AAs), thereby promoting the risk of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) transmission in sewage and sludge during biological nitrogen removal (BNR) processes. An...
Indigenous phages play a key role in the spread of extracellular antibiotic resistance genes (eARGs), and micro/nanocontaminants can exacerbate this process. However, the specific roles and mechanisms of phage communities in this process are still no...
Microplastics (MPs) and per/polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs), as emerging pollutants widely present in aquatic environments, pose a significant threat to human health through the horizontal gene transfer (HGT) of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs)....
Disinfection has been applied widely for the removal of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) to curb the spread of antibiotic resistance. Quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) is the most used method to quantify the damage of DNA thus calculati...

OBJECTIVE: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR), a global threat driven by factors such as improper antimicrobial use in humans and animals, is projected to cause 10 million annual deaths by 2050. For behavior change, public health messages must be tailore...
